KAREN K STONE - Finish Like a Pro + Quilts!
The choices we make after completing our quilt tops vitally influence the success of our work.

Karen shares her conclusions and favorite techniques. Of course, she will also share a beautiful trunk show of her work. Following the presentation, Karen will offer an opportunity for questions.
